FOXES results have contributed to shed light on the factors that limit the operational stability of perovskite solar cells (PSC). An extensive work headed by the University of Potsdam has identified mobile ion-induced internal field screening is the dominant factor in the degradation of PSC under operational conditions. The increased field screening leads to...

Predicting Resistance Changes in Light-Activated Gas Sensors: A New Phenomenological Model FOXES partners at the University of Barcelona (UB) have developed a phenomenological model that accurately predicts resistance changes in light-activated gas sensors. This model relies solely on a set of parameters determined in advance through dedicated experiments. Light activation offers a superior alternative...

Martina Angermann and co-workers have developed an effective method for depositing highly conductive thin films of ruthenium dioxide (RuO2) from aqueous chemical solution deposition. The method is not only simple and inexpensive, but also uses only environmentally friendly solvents (water and acetic acid) and could offer great advantages for industrial applications. Conductive metal oxides...
